[Abstract]

Hello,

I'm new to this forum, so, hello there!

Anyway, to cut a long story short, i've just moved over to the stand-alone cable modem (SACM) from a set-top box, and i was wondering a few things...

1. I've seen the sticky thread on how to install the cable modem without the broadjump CD, but hasn't the CD got the cable modem drivers on it that you need installed?

2. How hot can the cable modem get? because mine's very hot atm. Does it need a fan or lots of ventilation?

3. Is it alright to have my cable modem on top of my PC with my router on top of the cable modem? Air-flow, etc.

Thanks very much in advance.

Cheers.

Jim
